Because all of the walmarts around me only carry shelves that are around 34-36 inches long, and with the support posts the 41qts just don't fit

    You can fit a 41qt tub in this one. A while back I was planning on using these to make racks but never did and now I kinda of regret it. Here's a youtube video to help you as well.

    Re: Our adult rack - picture heavy

    Oh alright, that makes sense then! I thought maybe the walmarts around me just didn't carry the same shelving unit, because at least from your pics it looks like they fit in there very nicely and can slide out. So the tubs do fit but you have to kind of put them in sideways first? Is it a pain to get them in and out as far as them getting stuck or anything? Sorry for all the questions, I'm just excited now since the only other unit I could find was a 42 inch one at Lowes for $60, so if I can make the $40 one work that would be awesome

    I don't find it to be a pain. They sit tight enough when slightly open which is nice for letting girls climb up and feel for follicles. Biggest thing at first is not sloshing water bowls. The solution, btw is to put the water bowl side in first, set in water bowl, then pop heat cable side in second, lol.

    Re: Our adult rack - picture heavy

    So are your shelves 36 inches long? It looks like it from the pics but I just want to ask and make sure. I bought a unit from Lowes today that is supposedly the same size as the walmart one except it was a few dollars cheaper, but I got it home and the tubs will not fit at all Tried sideways first and there's just no way... I think maybe it has to do with where the support posts run through the shelf because the walmart ones are more offset... oh well, at least I didn't cut anything.

    I'm told the shelves are 36.5 inches. It could very well be the post placement as well.
